Thanks. Not going near the springs. I’ve seen many posts where people want to replace them themselves and everyone advises against it. I’ve worked on the motor unit before - the gears (nylon I think) had gotten chewed up somehow and I replaced them.

I was thinking there would be a chance of that. In researching the replacement circuit board they seem big into backwards compatibility.
I guess my question was whether the stats, e.g. number of teeth per inch, width, thickness on garage door belts are standardized/universal. It’s good information that you were able to reuse the chain and replacing it isn’t that hard to do, thanks!
Yes, clearly the motor itself works fine. When I said motor unit I meant the entire box which includes the circuit board electronics that’s failed. If the radio in the motor unit isn’t working I’m not sure the Meross is going to solve that problem.
You really have to google your disposal service. It is by no means uniform across the country or even your state, but rather it depends on what kind of facilities your local disposal service has. For instance I moved from one county to another, and discovered I was not allowed to put paper milk cartons in the recycle bin. County A’s disposal company could recycle them, county B’s couldn’t.
